the Company's election not to extend the Agreement Term) other than for Cause,
Disability or death, or if Executive shall terminate employment for Good Reason,
the Company's obligations to Executive, shall be as set forth below; PROVIDED,

            benefit plans of the Company (collectively, the "Accrued
            Obligations");

                  (2)   a cash amount equal to the greater of (A) the amount of
            Salary that would have been paid over the remainder of the then
            current Agreement Term or (B) one and one-half times Salary, payable
            in accordance with normal payroll practices of the Company in
            substantially equal installments following the termination date

            the Executive violates the restrictive covenants described in
            Sections 7.1, 7.2, and 7.3 of this Agreement payments under this
            Section 4.2(a)(2) shall cease.

      Period or (ii) Executive is provided similar coverage by a new employer,
      the Company shall continue to provide to Executive with continued coverage
      under welfare benefit programs in which Executive was entitled to
      participate immediately prior to his termination date, on a basis that is
      no less favorable to Executive than would apply if the Executive was an
      active employee; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that with respect to any such coverage
      that is provided on a pre-tax basis, the Company shall not be obligated,
      if not permitted by the terms of the applicable plan or by applicable law,
      to provide such coverage on a pre-tax basis, and PROVIDED FURTHER,

      is barred by the terms thereof, the Company shall arrange to provide
      Executive with benefits substantially similar to those which Executive
      would otherwise be entitled to receive under such plans, program or
      arrangements. The Company may meet its obligations under this Section

Agreement Term, the Company shall terminate Executive's employment for Cause, or

have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this

the payment of the Accrued Obligations to Executive (or to Executive's
representative, as the case may be), and (b) payment in cash to Executive (or to
Executive's representative, as the case may be) of a Pro-Rata Bonus, payable as
soon as practicable following the termination of Executive's employment.

      4.6   CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT BEYOND THE EXPIRATION OF THE AGREEMENT TERM.
Unless the parties otherwise agree in writing, continuation of Executive's
employment with the Company beyond the expiration of the Agreement Term shall be
deemed an employment at-will and shall not be deemed to extend any of the
provisions of this Agreement and Executive's employment may thereafter be
terminated at will by either Executive or the Company; PROVIDED that the
provisions of Article VII of this Agreement shall survive any termination of
this Agreement or Executive's termination of employment hereunder.

      4.7   BOARD/COMMITTEE RESIGNATION. Upon termination of Executive's
employment for any reason, Executive agrees to resign, as of the date of such
termination and to the extent applicable, from the Board (and any committees

      the Company or such Person) (all such payments and benefits, including the
      severance payments, being hereinafter called "Total Payments") would be
      subject (in whole or part), to the Excise Tax, then, after taking into
      account any reduction in the Total Payments provided by reason of section
      280G of the Code in such other plan, arrangement or agreement, the cash
      severance payments shall first be reduced, and the noncash severance
      payments shall thereafter be reduced, to the extent necessary so that no
      portion of the Total Payments is subject to the Excise Tax but only if (A)
      the net amount of such Total Payments, as so reduced (and after
      subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on
      such reduced Total Payments) is greater than or equal to (B) the net
      amount of such Total Payments without such reduction (but after
      subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on
      such Total Payments and the amount of Excise Tax to which the Executive
      would be subject in respect of such unreduced Total Payments); provided,
      however, that the Executive may elect to have the noncash severance
      payments reduced (or eliminated) prior to any reduction of the cash
      severance payments.

            (b)   For purposes of determining whether and the extent to which
      the Total Payments will be subject to the Excise Tax, (i) no portion of
      the Total Payments the receipt or enjoyment of which the Executive shall
      have waived at such time and in such manner as not to constitute a
      "payment" within the meaning

                                     - 10 -
<Page>

      of section 280G(b) of the Code shall be taken into account, (ii) no
      portion of the Total Payments shall be taken into account which, in the
      opinion of tax counsel ("Tax Counsel") selected by the accounting firm
      (the "Auditor") which was, immediately prior to the Change of Control, the
      Company's independent auditor, does not constitute a "parachute payment"
      within the meaning of section 280G(b)(2) of the Code (including by reason
      of section 280G(b)(4)(A) of the Code) and, in calculating the Excise Tax,
      no portion of such Total Payments shall be taken into account which, in
      the opinion of Tax Counsel, constitutes reasonable compensation for
      services actually rendered, within the meaning of section 280G(b)(4)(B) of
      the Code, in excess of the base amount allocable to such reasonable
      compensation, and (iii) the value of any non-cash benefit or any deferred
      payment or benefit included in the Total Payments shall be determined by
      the Auditor in accordance with the principles of sections 280G(d)(3) and
      (4) of the Code.

            (c)   At the time that payments are made under this Agreement, the
      Company shall provide the Executive with a written statement setting forth
      the manner in which such payments were calculated and the basis for such
      calculations including, without limitation, any opinions or other advice
      the Company has received from Tax Counsel, the Auditor or other advisors
      or consultants (and any such opinions or advice which are in writing shall
      be attached to the statement) for Executive's use in preparing his own tax
      returns.

                                   ARTICLE VI.
                            NO SET-OFF OR MITIGATION

      6.1   NO SET-OFF BY COMPANY. Executive's right to receive when due the
payments and other benefits provided for under and in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement is absolute, unconditional and not subject to set-off,
counterclaim or legal or equitable defense.

      6.2   NO MITIGATION. Executive shall not have any duty to mitigate the
amounts payable by the Company under this Agreement upon any termination of
employment by seeking new employment following termination. Except as
specifically otherwise provided in this Agreement, all amounts payable pursuant
to this Agreement shall be paid without reduction regardless of any amounts of
salary, compensation or other amounts which may be paid or payable to Executive
as the result of Executive's employment by another employer or self-employment.

                                  ARTICLE VII.
                       CONFIDENTIALITY AND NONCOMPETITION

      7.1   CONFIDENTIALITY.

            (a)   Executive will not at any time (whether during or after
      Executive's employment with the Company), except as reasonably necessary
      in connection

                                     - 11 -

      with the performance of his duties hereunder (x) retain or use for the
      benefit, purposes or account of Executive or any other Person, or (y)
      disclose, divulge, reveal, communicate, share, transfer or provide access
      to any Person outside the Company (other than its professional advisers
      who are bound by confidentiality obligations), any non-public, proprietary
      or confidential information -- including without limitation trade secrets,
      know-how, research and development, software, databases, inventions,
      processes, formulae, technology, designs and other intellectual property,
      information concerning finances, investments, profits, pricing, costs,
      products, services, vendors, customers, clients, partners, investors,
      personnel, compensation, recruiting, training, advertising, sales,
      marketing, promotions, government and regulatory activities and approvals
      -- concerning the past, current or future business, activities and
      operations of the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates and/or any third
      party that has disclosed or provided any of same to the Company on a
      confidential basis ("Confidential Information") without the prior written
      authorization of the President.

            (b)   "Confidential Information" shall not include any information
      that is (i) generally known to the industry or the public other than as a
      result of Executive's breach of this covenant or any breach of other
      confidentiality obligations by third parties; (ii) made legitimately
      available to Executive by a third party without breach of any
      confidentiality obligation; or (iii) required by law to be disclosed;
      PROVIDED that Executive shall give prompt written notice to the Company of
      such requirement, disclose no more information than is so required, and
      cooperate with any attempts by the Company to obtain a protective order or
      similar treatment.

            (c)   Except as required by law, Executive will not disclose to
      anyone, other than Executive's immediate family and legal or financial
      advisors, the existence or contents of this Agreement; PROVIDED that
      Executive may disclose to any prospective future employer the provisions
      of Article VII of this Agreement provided they agree to maintain the
      confidentiality of such terms.

      7.2   NONSOLICITATION. During the Employment Period, and if Executive's
employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause, Disability, or
death, or by Executive for Good Reason, during the Severance Period, Executive
shall not, directly or indirectly, (a) employ any employee of the Company and/or
its affiliates, (b) interfere with the Company's or any of its affiliates'
relationship with, or (c) employ or endeavor to employ any Person who is or was
an employee of any business of the Company and/or its affiliates during the
period commencing one (1) year prior to such solicitation or employment,
provided, however, that if any employee of the Company applies for a job with
Executive through general advertising or media, such employment shall not be
deemed to be a breach of this Section 7.2.

      7.3   NONCOMPETITION. During the Employment Period, and if Executive's
employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause, Disability, or
death, or by Executive for Good Reason, during the Severance Period, Executive
shall not directly

                                     - 12 -
<Page>

or indirectly engage in any Competitive Activity (as defined below) without the
prior approval of the Board. "Competitive Activity" means to carry on, be
engaged in or have any financial interest (other than an ownership interest of
less than 1% in any publicly traded entity) in any Company Competitor (as such
term is defined in the Stockholders' Agreement). After the Severance Period,
Executive shall not be implicitly or explicitly restricted from engaging in
Competitive Activity subject to his satisfaction of his obligations under this
Section 7.3.

      7.4   It is expressly understood and agreed that although Executive and
the Company consider the restrictions contained in this Article VII to be
reasonable, if a final judicial determination is made by a court of competent
jurisdiction that the time or territory or any other restriction contained in
this Agreement is an unenforceable restriction against Executive, the provisions
of this Agreement shall not be rendered void but shall be deemed amended to
apply as to such maximum time and territory and to such maximum extent as such
court may judicially determine or indicate to be enforceable. Alternatively, if
any court of competent jurisdiction finds that any restriction contained in this
Agreement is unenforceable, and such restriction cannot be amended so as to make
it enforceable, such finding shall not affect the enforceability of any of the
other restrictions contained herein.

                                  ARTICLE VIII.
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

      8.1   SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the
Company's remedies at law for a breach or threatened breach of any of the
provisions of Article VII would be inadequate and the Company would suffer
irreparable damages as a result of such breach or threatened breach. In
recognition of this fact, Executive agrees that, in the event of such a breach
or threatened breach, in addition to any remedies at law, the Company, without
posting any bond, shall be entitled to obtain equitable relief in the form of
specific performance, temporary restraining order, temporary or permanent
injunction or any other equitable remedy which may then be available.

      8.2   REPRESENTATIONS; NONDISCLOSURE. Executive represents and warrants
that he is not a party to any agreement, contract or understanding, employment
or otherwise, which would restrict or prohibit him in any way from undertaking
or performing employment in accordance with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement.

      8.3   NO ASSIGNABILITY. This Agreement is personal to Executive and
without the prior written consent of the Company shall not be assignable or
delegable by Executive. Any purported assignment or delegation by Executive in
violation of the foregoing shall be null and void ab initio and of no force and
effect. This Agreement may be assigned by the Company to a person or entity
which is an affiliate or a successor in interest to substantially all of the
business operations of the Company. Upon such assignment, the rights and
obligations of the Company hereunder shall become the rights and obligations of
such affiliate or successor person or entity. This Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of and be enforceable by Executive's legal representatives.

                                     - 13 -
<Page>

      8.4   SUCCESSORS; BINDING AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns. The
Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase,
merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business
or assets of the Company to assume expressly and agree to perform this Agreement
in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to
perform it if no such succession had taken place. Any successor to the business
and/or assets of the Company which assumes or agrees to perform this Agreement
by operation of law, contract, or otherwise shall be jointly and severally
liable with the Company under this Agreement as if such successor were the
Company.

      8.5   PAYMENTS TO BENEFICIARY. If Executive dies before receiving amounts
to which Executive is entitled under this Agreement, such amounts shall be paid
to the beneficiary designated in writing by Executive, or if none is so
designated, to Executive's estate.

      8.6   NON-ALIENATION OF BENEFITS. Benefits payable under this Agreement
shall not be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer,
assignment, pledge, encumbrance, charge, garnishment, execution or levy of any
kind, either voluntary or involuntary, before actually being received by
Executive, and any such attempt to dispose of any right to benefits payable
under this Agreement shall be void.

      8.7   SEVERABILITY. If any one or more Articles, Sections or other
portions of this Agreement are declared by any court or governmental authority
to be unlawful or invalid, such unlawfulness or invalidity shall not serve to
invalidate any Article, Section or other portion not so declared to be unlawful
or invalid. Any Article, Section or other portion so declared to be unlawful or
invalid shall be construed so as to effectuate the terms of such Article,
Section or other portion to the fullest extent possible while remaining lawful
and valid.

      8.8   AMENDMENTS. This Agreement shall not be altered, amended or modified
except by written instrument executed by the Company and Executive.

under this Agreement any federal, state or local taxes that are required to be
withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

any provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of such provision
or any other provision of this Agreement. A waiver of any provision of this
Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of any other provision, and any waiver of
any default in any such provision shall not be deemed a waiver of any later
default thereof or of any other provision.

      8.15  NON-EXCLUSIVITY OF RIGHTS. This Agreement shall not prevent or limit
Executive's continuing or future participation in any benefit, bonus, incentive
or other plans provided by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and for which

rights as Executive may

                                     - 15 -

have under any other agreements with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
including but not limited to any Related Agreement. Amounts which are vested
benefits or which Executive is otherwise entitled to receive under any plan of
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any other payment or benefit required
by law at or after the termination date shall be payable in accordance with such
plan or applicable law except as expressly modified by this Agreement. In
addition, the awards granted to Executive under the Management Plan shall be
governed by the terms of such plan and the award agreements thereunder.
